Attend Coaching Seminars

There is nothing more important to a child than respecting him/her. Understanding what they're doing so you can comprehend their problems is an easy way to do this.

Most basketball youth leagues offer coaching seminars for free, or a small amount of money. If you attend one of these, you'll be able to help your kids achieve success in their basketball careers.

These coaching seminars will help you understand the finer points of basketball, which can help you better understand the fundamentals of the game. You can learn many good tips from the coaches at these seminars that I have found very useful, such as types of drills and ways to motivate my players.

I coach my younger son and daughter, and these seminars have made me an exponentially better coach.

More knowledge = better basketball coachesby: Joe Waters - webmaster

You are exactly right Matt. Basketball clinics and coaching seminars are a fantastic and simple way to gain more knowledge about the game of basketball.

Some of my best learning took place at coaching clinics that I attended at local universities. Some were put on by NCAA coaches, others by NBA coaches, while some were put on by the local high school coaches.

Regardless of the format, attending these basketball clinics is crucial to your success as a coach.

After all, a basketball coach is a teacher of the game. In order to teach the skills of the game properly you must be properly educated. Basketball coaching seminars are simple and effective way to accomplish this.

This is a great tip for all basketball parents and coaches...thanks Matt.
